Stalker...

Hello guys. Hope you're all doing fine. I once mentioned my girlfriend, and how nice she is to me. Well, she's a writer, and she'd been offering to write an article for me here, but I always didn't want to bother her. So today I bring you an original she wrote. Hope you guys have a good read...

He was tall, she could tell from the way his shadow seemed to catch up with her at night. Sometimes when he got close enough, she swore she could catch a hint of lavender musk. She called it the scent of anxiety because her heart would start racing whenever she perceived it. She had felt his presence everywhere and on several occasions, she caught a glimpse of his face. It was disappointing how good he looked. It had been a year since she made a formal complaint with nothing to show for it.

For the first time, Oluchi managed to get to the restaurant before Buchi, her new boyfriend. She smiled to herself knowing that Buchi would be pleasantly surprised to see her there already. She took a seat in the corner, scrolling through her phone to pass the time when she noticed it; the faint scent of lavender musk. He had never followed her into an indoor space before. Beads of sweat dropped from her forehead and she felt a pit in her stomach. She clutched her phone tightly in her hands and slowly, she looked around. It wasn't long before she saw the tall man walking purposefully towards her.

"Good evening Oluchi, my Olly." he started as he got to her seat. Oluchi looked at him with furrowed brows. As she made to speak, he continued, cutting her off. "Please, don't say anything till I'm done. I've rehearsed this speech for several hours and I want to say what's on my mind before I'm unable to," he said as he picked up her glass of water and drank it in one full gulp.

"You see Olly, I'll keep this short. It's over between us. We can't keep doing this to ourselves."

"What? What are you talking about?" Oluchi yelled as she pushed her chair away from him and held her phone tightly.

"I know how we feel about each other but it's time to let go. I have found someone else and I know you've been seeing another man too."

"Are you mad? What the hell is this?" Oluchi yelled as she stood up from her seat and backed away.

"My ever feisty Olly," he said with a calm smile, trying to reach for her hand.

"Don't touch me!" she smacked his hand and started dialling on her phone, "Who the hell are you?"

With a smile, he apologised, "Forgive me my love, I forgot we never had a formal introduction. Although, if you truly cared about me, you should have known. My name is Kene. I like the new toothbrush you got us by the way, it's softer than the last one."

That would be all guys. Thanks for reading. If you didn't get the story, then you should look at the title again. (:

Also, the behaviors exhibited in the story is probably something along the lines of anti social personality disorder, but if I'm wrong, or you know the specific type, do let me know... If you still don't get the story, no biggie because I needed a few pointers myself before I got it... Feel free to ask any questions concerning what's confusing you...

Tomorrow, I'll probably continue with my list. Maybe it's going to be a list of my top favorite extinct animals, who knows??? If you like the lists I make and you want me to do that predominantly, please let me know. If you want a mixture with that kind of content appearing just add much as others, please let me know too... If there's a specific list you'd have me write,,, also let me know...

I love you guys... Thanks for always being awesome...
